An unsaturated cyclic hydrocarbon which is relatively less reactive compared to alkenes or alkynes. or + + + Cl2 HNO3 CH3Cl Cl NO2 FeCl3 H2SO4 AlCl3 + HCl + HCl CH3 Chlorobenzene Nitrobenzene Toluene E.g. delocalized π electrons - sp2 hybrid orbitals - Benzene undergoes Substitution Reactions - The products of these substitution reactions are monosubstituted benzene, with common names. - Systematic and common names with poly-substitution. 22.3 Aromatic Hydrocarbons 2 More Complex Aromatic Compounds ortho (o-) meta (m-) para (p-) X X X X X X 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 5 6 (o-)1,2 (m-) 1,3- (p-) 1,4- .an organic semiconductor used in thin film transistors Some substituted benzenes and their names Pen tacenePentacene 22.4 Hydrocarbon Derivatives • Functional Groups - Atoms or groups of atoms that are part of an organic molecule and that exhibit characteristic chemistry, e.g. reactivity towards a particular reagent. ( See common functional groups in Table 22.4) • Alcohols - contain the hydroxyl (-OH) functional group. - nomenclature: replace the –e of the parent hydrocarbon with –ol. e.g. methane → methanol, CH3OH ethane → ethanol, CH3CH2OH In IUPAC naming, 3-Buten-2-ol OH is given a lower number CH2=CHCH2CH3 than C=C or halogen 1-Butene R CH2OH CHOH R R' R CR' R" OH H2C CHCH2CH3 OH Primary alcohol (1o) Secondary alcohol (2o) Tertiary alcohol (3o) 5 H3CC O OH + H-OCH2CH3 H3CC O OCH2CH3 + H2O acetic acid ethanol ethyl acetate - Names: alkyl prefix from the patent alcohol + replace –oic of parent acid with -oate H3CC O OCH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH3 (common name: n-octyl acetate) n-octylethanoate C OH O OH + HO CCH3 O C OH O O + C O CH3 H2O Salicyclic acid Acetic acid Acetylsalicyclic aicd aspirin — Esterification reaction R1C O OH + H-OR2 R1C O OR2 + H2O acid alcohol Ester • Useful for the synthesis of polymers Esters • contain the functional group • synthesis: carboxylic acid + alcohol → ester C O O • Amines • Other Functional groups ( Not in Table 22.4) R1 N H C O R2 + H2OR1NH2 + HO C O R2 Amides E.g.
